It is an E25TELEIE.
I took the lower unit off because there was some water in the gear case.
It passes a pressure/vacuum test, now.
In trying to get the lower unit back on, I've had a lot of trouble getting the water tube to go into the water pump grommet.
I finally used a length of stainless-steel wire (with a little hook on the end) and a spotlight.
Thought I had it. Put the bolts holding the lower unit back in and fired it up.
NOT PUMPING! Nothing but smoke coming out of the tell-tale. It was pumping fine when I took it apart.
Is there some trick to getting the lower unit back on?
